"Good grief" turns into fashion relief as MetLife presents a group designer fashion show featuring exclusively designed fashions for Snoopy on September 7 at 6 p.m. as part of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Bryant Park. Many of fashion’s most renowned designers have confirmed their participation, including Heatherette, Isaac Mizrahi, Betsey Johnson, Pamella Roland, and Project Runway alum Laura Bennett. Each designer has taken inspiration from their favorite Peanuts character to create a couture runway outfit, making a bold leap from initial black-and-white sketch to vibrant, colorful ensemble.

Following the MetLife Snoopy in Fashion show, Peanuts fans and fashionistas alike will share the opportunity to bid on the unique designer runway creations in an eBay auction. Proceeds from the MetLife Snoopy in Fashion auction will benefit Dress for Success, a non-profit organization which promotes the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support, and the career development tools to help them thrive in work and in life."

And because we're so fabulously glamorous, we broke into Laura's loft and stole her sketches! We do it all for you, kittens!

Many designers spend their first years of their career struggling with their own signature-style. Laura's had hers from day one. She's both lucky and gifted.

IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY there is no point being different just for the sake of being different. A true fashion designer embraces his/her signature-style. It is only once they've embraced it that they can begin to perfect it and iterate it for each collection they work on.

The GREAT designers found success through accepting their style and running with it. In fact, many of them are contacted by clients specifically for their signature-style.

When I first read that the clothes were to be inspired by Peanuts, I was a bit puzzled. Like, how much can you do with a sweater with a zig-zag? Then I saw Laura's sketches. GORGEOUS! I totally love the Woodstock dress. You WILL show us photos of the finished garments, right?
